I support a local quilt shop to the extent that I can financially. I go there for a sit and stitch day out, my only day out during the week, I buy a $10.00 magazine every month, and others as they catch my interest. Have taken FMQ classes because they offered them on Saturday. Would go to other activities if I did not care for an 18 mo old great grandson. I don't however buy very much fabric because of the price. If there is a sale, I buy; if there is something I just have to have for a special quilt, I buy; but to satisfy my fabric addition I go to a Fabric Outlet that has good fabrics but last years designs. That doesn't matter to me. If I can buy moda for $2.50 to $3.50 a yard instead of $9.99 a yard, I will. It just makes sense.
